A-2 This god's name is Horus. Horus had a head of a hawk and the body of a human. Another name for Horus was Haroeris which said that one of his eyes represented the sun and the other the moon. HarpaNebTaui was another frequently used name meaning Lord of the Two Lands. He was also shown as a falcon on the shoulder of pharaohs, offering guidance.
He is the god of the sky, and was the protector of the ruler's of Egypt. It's believed that Horus was the son of Iris and Osiris.
Osiris was killed by Horus's evil uncle, Seth. Horus goal was to avenge his father's death. Horus and Seth had many battles who would became ruler. Horus represented Lower Egypt and Seth represented Upper Egypt. In one of the battles, Horus lost one of his eyes. Egyptians eventually chose Horus over Seth to be the ruler of the living.
If I were to design a temple for Horus, I would make a ramp to the main entrance of a gray granite temple with secret tunnels going each way. The secret tunnels were just for the king. Then for all other visitors their would be a wall that would send the males one way and the females the other way to different worship rooms honoring Horus. The tunnels that are for the king would lead him to a private worship area. The private worship area would have gold falcon statues. After the visitors spent time worshipping Horus, they would travel down a long and very wide hallway that led to statues of Isis, Osiris, and Horus. The long hallway would have carvings of hawks and hieroglyphics of all Egyptian Gods and Goddesses.
